I have a menu bar which has several menus, the last on is "Help".  I want
that to always be on the extreme right of the menu bar.  In order to do
this I add several menus to the menu bar, some HGlue, and then the Help
menu.  It works up to a point, but if you resize the window enough, help
isn't on the extreme right any more.  I can't give you code because I use
proprietary InterViews bindings.  If enough people tell me that it should
work, then I guess its my code.

Object hierarchy:

Menu - MainMenu
  Menu - File
  Menu - Edit
  Menu - View
  Menu - Options
  HGlue  natural=0 shrink=0 stretch=infinite
  Menu - Help

Any pointers would be appreciated.
